Nigel Silva-Dallenbach on Data-Driven Sailing
Listen now
Description
This week's host, Ryan Foland, is joined by Nigel Silva-Dallenbach to chat the intersection of sailing and tech. Nigel is a sailing enthusiast, instructor, and software developer working on a new device that will gather various data points while sailing. Using this data, Nigel hopes to develop new insights to help his training for the Tempest World Championship later this year in Switzerland. Hear about the ABYC (Alamitos Bay Yacht Club) Tempest Fleet, why the Tempest is Nigel’s favorite boat, and how he got into sailing instructing at ABYC. The show finishes with a thoughtful discussion on how we can improve youth sailing programs. Learn more about Nigel on LinkedIn, Ryan at Ryan.Online, and ABYC’s adult sailing programs at ABYC.org
